Assembly Hall at Shoreditch Town Hall

The venue is completely unavailable from late June through July, August, and September due to large rehearsals that occupy the entire venue. Additionally, from 24th November to 17th December, the venue exclusively hosts KIN London's Christmas Social and cannot accommodate other bookings during this period.

The Assembly Hall can accommodate up to 500 people with Matrix seats in theatre style, plus an additional 250 seats in the balcony for a total capacity of 750. The venue has folding chairs and trestle tables available on-site, and seating is removable to allow for flexible configurations including cabaret style with round tables.

Shoreditch Town Hall operates primarily on a dry hire basis, allowing you to source external caterers of your choice. They have featured catering suppliers who have previously worked at the venue and can provide recommendations. An in-house bar service is available with details in their Bar Hire Guide, and the Old Servery space adjoining the Assembly Hall can be used by caterers to set up equipment.

The venue can provide full production in-house including audio, video, and lighting equipment. For the Assembly Hall specifically, they can provide speakers, projectors, and monitors. All production requirements are quoted bespoke based on your specific needs, with full details available in their Production Guide.

It is the hirer's responsibility to set up and clear down the space unless specifically discussed with the venue in advance. If the venue assists with setup and breakdown, this time will be factored into the hire period and may affect pricing.

No agreement exists between the venue and any third party until a contract and full terms & conditions are signed by both parties and all hire fees and other charges are paid in full. Any enquiry, discussion, or correspondence regarding bookings should never be taken as confirmation, and the venue reserves the right to vary or cancel hires pre and post contract.

Shoreditch Town Hall operates a tiered provisional booking system. Dates can be held as first option (confirmed provisional hold), second option (backup if first option cancels), or third option (backup if both first and second options cancel). The venue will contact you if higher-priority bookings are cancelled and your option becomes available.

Due to the building's listed status and the nature of their cultural programme, Shoreditch Town Hall cannot facilitate club nights or sporting events. The venue runs a fully curated cultural programme, and events must align with their programming philosophy - they recommend reviewing their previous productions and how they work with artists before enquiring.

The Assembly Hall features a built-in raised stage measuring 10.3 x 4.4 meters. The space has high ceilings, Italian marble panelled walls, and a Matcham style balcony, providing a distinctive feeling of grandeur and elegance suitable for large-scale conferences and award ceremonies.

Site visits can be arranged by contacting the venue directly.
